Stewart takes the biggest win of his career on Dauphiné stage 5
Jake Stewart (Israel-Premier Tech) sprinted to a no-doubt victory on stage 5 of the Critérium du Dauphiné. The 25-year-old Brit bested Axel Laurence (Ineos Grenadiers) and Søren Wærenskjold (Uno-X Mobility) in Mâcon, France, in the heart of the Burgundy wine region.
The win is the biggest so far in Jake Stewart's young career, and it is also the first ever for the eye-catching Factor aero bike that the Israel-Premier Tech team brought to the race.
Race leader Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quick-Step) went down in a crash inside the final kilometer but remounted immediately and seemed unhurt. Given that the incident occurred so close to the line, he registered the same finishing time for GC purposes as the rest of the peloton.
